<p>Is it expected that on timeout there are no logs for the step that timed out?</p>

<p>Could it be that it signifies some sort of an issue with the runner? Or perhaps that the code is not running at all?</p>

<p>Would it perhaps make sense to have two kinds of timeouts: one that waits for output and is shorter (say 30 mins) so that a case like this is caught sooner, and perhaps increase the overall timeout to longer otherwise?</p>

<p>It's possible we could detect this kind of failure and automatically retry though</p>

<p>an empty log like that means the underlying VM crashed or lost network</p>

<p>I'm suggesting adding a different kind of timeout that checks for output so that in cases like VM crashes etc the job fails sooner.</p>

<p>Though I guess github at least doesn't have a native way to set one such timeout</p>
